Americans love to be tyrannical and punitive, particularly with service employees. And business owners are more than happy to grant them that in exchange for lower wages. Feels like a fair trade to me.

Right, well we aren't talking about polarization since LEDs don't emit polarized light, so you'd need notch filters to block the wavelengths LEDs emit, but the notch required to block all LEDs would be entire visible spectrum

Perhaps by LED they're referring to LED-backlit LCD displays. There's pretty much full coverage of the visible spectrum across different LED types, so the only way to block them is with completely opaque lenses.

How would a bunch of X-Acto blades laying parallel with the canvas be able to cleanly cut it into strips? It seems more likely that the frame contained a pre-cut version that it just rolled out.
